When will we start behaving like a normal community?

I'm sure you can rent a server of 2-5 terabytes
At a price of more or less $ 1000 per month
In the worst case, it is possible to buy a memory to support the amount of information

Not in any case my friend give some hope to humanity

>a server
why are you not running your own peertube yet?

Op obviously does not know what he's talking about
But I'll make the logo

>peertube
And how is it going to stop the censorship and the blockades?

Web development is not rocket science
And the whole network matter belongs to the server vendor
This is easy to do

Or we could host it on one of anons computer with apache
>Op is a massive gamer fagit

why rent a server? just get a whole bunch of people buying old servers off ebay and set up some protocol to share videos between them or something.

>self taught programmer detected

user computer can handle 600 requests per sec?

couldn't you do it somewhat like how cdns do? spread it over a bunch of servers?

This is possible but I think the electricity bill will be higher
From a few dollars a month

How many people do you think are going to use this service? It would just be mostly people on 4channel

>Peer to peer

I see no reason to deal with this nonsense
There is a service that offers it
And it's cheap and I do not have to go out and buy hardware

right but it takes away that whole central point of failure thing. A bunch of anons would have to actually dedicate towards fucking googles shit up or at least establishing some alternative. People would have to either pay for electricity individually or pay a standard, like a guild fee or something similar.

youtubes a service too and its (free)

I like the idea. I'd definitely pay 5$ or 10$ a month to make this a real thing.

This. If we use a hosting service we'll need to chip in some money. Donors can get passes or titles
If user hosts, they can be like m00t

>Add in all other expenses, and the cost of running YouTube for one year exceeds $700 million

This was back in 2009. It's probably about double that amount nowadays with all the HD and 4K videos they host, plus how many people watch it as their main source of entertainment. Even a very good hearted billionaire philanthropist like Soros wouldn't be able to pay for a service like this.
This is also scary because it could mean Google pulling the plug on this whole thing anytime soon if it's not turning a profit. All it would take is a cost cutting exercise triggered by some financial crisis. Imagine a world without YouTube!

right but you would still need some sort of way to sort out where traffic is going or how that data is stored across the network? like what one guy isn't going to just have a billion racks of servers for this or even if you rent the shit someone is responsible for that bill

Ok, but if we do that we are using the botnet which defeats the purpose of this thread. So we need to self hosr

How do you incentivize people to make content for your site?
How do you separate your 4th Reich propaganda from your infosec information from your tech information?

With special titles and permissions

why do you have to incentivize content creation if its a paid for service?

It's not a paid service

>t. idealist who has never made a server or a website
google has hundreds of thousands of servers to support youtube.
hundreds of thousands.
the energy that they use to power their servers is significant to electric companies.
you think you can compete with $5/month?

the only economical way to compete with youtube would be to peer a vast network of computers together and share the burdon.
but, that won't happen because dumb perverts will upload cp.

youtube is a company that won't be defeated by idealists.
it would take dedicated engineers figuring out how to make a meshnet quick and free of cp.

paid by and for the people using the shit. If its donations or just a flat fee either way the ad driven content creation is what caused the evil shit going down with google lately.

this is true, it would need people who gave a fuck and some sort of moderation. This honestly is all spit-balling, but i perfer that over the waiting for the bubble to pop

Wouldn't something like Peertube work ?
Not sure if that is multi user but it would help with bandwidth costs and the like.

I do not want to defeat anyone
It's all about storing things I like and share

Yes, but it will cost more and I do not think there is any point in hiding yourself through another network to use one or two functions
You will not have to register and no one cares about you seeing some weird porn believe me

then here's how you can do that:
1) get an old computer and a usb stick
2) go here and get centos
centos.org/download/
3) use dd to put the iso image on the usb stick
4) install centos as a file server on the old computer from the usb stick
5)set up centos as a file server with a web interface (you'll have to design the website--it's not hard though)
6) enjoy your personal youtube-lite

i thought you wanted to create something that could compete with youtube.

if you want to share, you're going to have to port forward, and i would recommend setting up a DMZ along with a NIDS. i recommend setting up the DMZ with two firewalls.
also, depending on how much traffic you're expecting, you may need to contact your ISP.

>Not simply running a file server on your current operating system

2 3dgi 4 me

why centos?
who gives a fuck in what OS you can manage the server
The problem is in memory and network traffic
Especially if you want to fill it with content in an ongoing manner

>ISP
they dont even want to disable there DHCP fuck theme

>why centos?
two reasons.
first, user seems interested in servers.
second, centos is basically RHEL, why not start learning about servers from an OS catered to people who want to set up servers?
third, when someone wants to mess around with something that they don't understand, it's usually not a good idea to advise them to do it on their pc or laptop because they almost certainly haven't backed it up. it's easier to just nuke another computer and then reinstall from scratch while not interfering with your daily computing.
>who gives a fuck in what OS you can manage the server
>The problem is in memory and network traffic
>Especially if you want to fill it with content in an ongoing manner
1) it's free
2) he's not going to follow through
3) he might learn something about setting up a dedicated server from scratch
4) it's not going to get enough traffic for those issues to arise.

Guys, cant we just use a decentralized system?
Sorta like torrents, and someone just has adresses to all the content.

Then we wont need giant server to store everything. Just a simple web server, and some program to access everything.

Yeah avaibality will be shit with that, but we can do something about it.

zeronet already exists.

You'll see I have RAID5 that I fill it through the bot I wrote in Python This bot runs and automates the download of YouTube videos to fill it
But it's not exactly cheap or safe for me to upload it to the Internet so I prefer this service

Go for it my guys

i think something more like popcorntime

Then why not use it?

We can just host Jow Forums out there, and let people move to it.

A centralized solution is not a good idea no matter what. There are non YT video sites of varying popularity etc, but the cost is extreme to operate and many do the same data mining shit as YT if they're even a little successful. Metrics suggest that YouTube itself has been run at a loss for years, only supported by Google's other money making services

The solution to the issues here though all ready exist. For YT itself , PeerTube is the open source, decentralized and federated solution. It just needs to be made more popular and we need to filter content on our nodes properly, segregating the off putting stuff so it can have its own crazy corner without allowing it to poison the entire platform.

On a larger scale the same idea as PeerTube works for all social networks - favoring the "Fediverse" open source federated alternatives instead of proprietary centralized crap. Check out fediverse.party and other sites it links to for info on some of the apps.

Isn't dtube or whatever kind of like thst

>When will we start behaving like a normal community?
this is a wrong part of the internet for that.

didnt know about that one, seems pretty cool of a site tho

Listen here you little shit zoomer, if you thought about it for a second and looked at YouTube you’d understand why no other sites do the same thing

You do know operates at a literal hundred million dollars yearly loss right? That the only reason it is even afloat is because google throws money at it because it's strategically important for them to keep YT alive. YT isn't a monopoly because it beats the competition, it is a monopoly because there is no competition because the very business model isn't economically sustainable.

>peertube
literally no content at all
Any video blocked from YouTube
Will be on the server
At least in potential

You've got a mistake I'm not trying to make money
I try to get what I want without interruption and I'm willing to pay $ 5 a month for it

Not wanting to make a profit would be relevant if YT broke even. It operates at a /loss/. It does have a huge ad income, but it still operates at a loss because server operstion and badwidth costs are just that ridiculously massive. 5 bucks from users is meaningless because your subscription income rises linearly while your operstional costs rises exponentially with userbase.

>literally no content at all
faggot make some then

I rent one of 1.5 at about 12 USD a month, but the problem is not and it has never been the storage. It's the bandwidth and the disk operations. 1k a month won't cut it for anything good enough for a big userbase. Even 100k won't.

I think you are severly underestimating how much money 5 bucks per user per month really is

What you don't understand is the linearity vs exponetiality issue here.

All alternatives will have "literally no content at all " until someone pushes content onto it and eventually builds up a network effect.

The first content will be niche content either there for ideological reasons ( ie freetard fsf / eff stuff wanting to support open platforms etc ) or because they got kicked off / demonetized major platforms (alt-reich , gab level junk , Alex Jones etc) . While the first rarely draws others to the platform, the second actively harms adoption - people come into your site and the most visible video is a 2 hour rant about how da jooz are scheming to replace goyim testicles with jolly ranchers, with the rest of the page survivalist bone broth scams and people harassing brown people , they aren't going to stick around unless they're part of that small niche.

It's free, but not free. I want it to be free and free.

>Imagine a world without YouTube!
Now imagine world without Jow Forums.

This is why PeerTube is the best answer. It is not necessary for any one server to handle all the content or expense of hosting it. Data is shared between clients as well using webtorrent ( though if their ports are blocked it still works and there is a fallback) which further cuts down . Each node can federate with any node it chooses and have access to their content, with individual users able to access content on any node no matter their account location. Also unlike a few other alternatives , PeerTube doesn't require any block chain or crypto bullshit, which adds another who incentive and shitfuckery ( ie someone mines a whole bunch of your linked asset and suddenly the costs of hosting and or payouts are crazy, fluctuating with the crypto market )

This, YouTube is responsible for like 10% of internet traffic not to mention the amount of disk needed. Decentralized solutions are also DOA because of how shitty ISPs are in most of the civilized world.

>make a meshnet quick and free of cp.
AI Overlords are, again, the only way

k we'll call it NouTube

Alright Jow Forums, I made the logo

Attached: logo.png (640x400, 3K)

anime website

$200 /Month

Disk Space: 7 TB
Bandwidth: 9 TB
RAM: 64 GB
CPU Cores: 6
IPv4 Address: 1
SolusVM

i think that would do

>content problem
I'll just bombard the server with information
I have no problem running on youtube
And download quality content from them

I know like a couple dozen people with their own peertube instances. It's not that hard to set one up

Just use an adblocker you little shit

Yep, and PeerTube actualy gets faster and more accesible with popularity, which centralized shit struggles with
